4 Reasons Why
Educators Will
Love Our Games
Improved Learning
Research shows that students learn best when
they are physically engaged, having fun, and
using the content in meaningful ways. Games
really do improve learning and retention!
Educational Saturation
In nearly every minute of every Looney Labs
game, students are learning or practicing the
targeted educational skills – not just now and
then like many “educational” games!
Quick Play Time
Games play in only 5 to 40 minutes – perfect for
a single class period, lunch break, after school
program, or a club – that is, if you can put them
down and not play again and again.
Most of our games are $20 or less and their
small, uniform size make them easy to store,
buddy visits, or send home in backpacks for
extra practice.
The educational games inside have been winning
awards for decades!
